IntroductionIntroduction Questions
Are there robust spatial relationships between surface temperatures and ENSO/SAM?
Does SAM modulate the ENSO fingerprint? Methods
Extract patterns of variability in temperature and circulation data (SOMs)
Stratify data by SAM/ENSO states and hope there’s something to interpret in the patterns

Work with READER data Not high spatial density like a model grid… But the records are longer Then again, it’s monthly not daily…
Other fields that express the SAM Compare notes with those using other
methodologies!
